Dovey Moon

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@5.00

Lose

-50

Dovey Moon is getting very close to the winner's enclosure now, handicapping, and looks a likely winner in a race of this type before too long. Not much more is needed for him to go in for the first time.

NORTHCLIFF has previous for going in again after a last time out win and clearly connections think he's good to go once again after a very short break here. Not sure the penalty for the win at Wetherby is enough to put me off.

@19.00

Lose

-50

EAGLE LANDED has form when fresh and was competitive twice here at the back end of last year from today's mark or higher in the handicap. Could get close if fully tuned up and the stable have already banged in one nice price winner this month. Finished fourth in four of the last five races and there's a good return if he does the same again, but could fare better than that.

KRANCJAR looks the best of this bunch, and although a beaten favorite yesterday, he got very close and proved capable from this mark. If the stable gives him the once over and lets him run today, you will get a good run for your money because he's clearly in tune.

Disquietude

@19.00

Lose

-50

A potential lurker who has been showing some promise of late and could strike is DISQUIETUDE. Not worried about the last time out disappointment due to being bumped at the start, but showed signs in the two previous outings on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton, one in a handicap, to suggest she might shake off that maiden tag soon.

Pride Of Nepal

Daily Racing

25 EW

@17.00

Lose

-50

PRIDE OF NEPAL probably needed the run last time out after an extensive time off track. Now drops in grade to an all-weather handicap mark that looks manageable and gets a jockey in the saddle that has won on him before. Reacts to the surface and could be in the shake up if fully tuned up now.
14:30 Ronnie OSullivan v Si Jiahui

Si Jiahui

Win Match

50 WIN

@4.00

Lose

-50

I don't think Ronnie has really faced a challenge yet but this could be the match that finds him out. Jiahui is a very solid opponent and could land this one at a tasty price.

Jessika Ponchet

-50

Ponchet actually beat Parry in this tournament two years ago and with very little separating them in the rankings, Ponchet is probably in better form this season too.

@17.00

Void

0

BOY GEORGE has won well fresh in the past and a quiet period of runs on turf in a higher grade or on the all-weather (where he's not been quite as effective), has served to reduce the handicap mark. Now only a pound above that last winning mark and could get close if fully back in tune after the lay off. Reacts to fast ground, and has run well here in the past as well, considered at this price.

City Of Strangers

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@3.00

Lose

-50

CITY OF STRANGERS missed out over the five furlongs yesterday but was hugely effective when last seen over six furlongs and could well defy the weight rise for that win returning to this distance.

Matteo Berrettini

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.50

Void

Draper has edged the first two head-to-heads but the pair now meet on clay for the first time. This surface is Berrettini's strong suit and he could be the victor.
13:00 Moyuka Uchijima vs Ekaterina Alexandrova

Moyuka Uchijima

Win Match

50 WIN

@3.10

Win

105

Alexandrova has definitely improved on clay, but Uchijima is pretty decent on the surface too. I think both players should be a bit closer in odds.
10:00 Frances Tiafoe vs Alexandre Muller

Alexandre Muller

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.25

Lose

-50

Muller is in cracking form on the clay so could be good enough to take out the higher ranked player here. Tiafoe won on the hard court earlier in the year, it could well be a different story on clay.
01:10 DET Tigers @ HOU Astros

DET Tigers

Money Line

50 WIN

@2.00

Lose

-50

Tigers are bang in form at the moment and look a worthy double your money play to land this one. The Astros are improving but will need more to land this series I think.

Saver on ANCIENT TIMES here, who is clearly the biggest threat to the outsider I've already backed. Won last time out and could well defy the penalty for an in-form stable, who give him another quick run in an attempt to strike whilst the going is hot.

35

SECRET HANDSHAKE will benefit from the return to turf and could well get involved if performing to the levels of last season's campaign. Only two pounds above last winning mark and only one click above a promising run at Sandown at the end of August. The last two all-weather runs have served to tune up for the turf season, so this one could fare better now.

May Remain

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@8.00

Lose

-50

MAY REMAIN is the other to consider in this one. One of the older horses, but these sorts are worth backing when they are in good shape. The yard gives him another quick spin after the near miss here last time out. Stays at the same weight too.

Red Walls

Daily Racing

25 EW

@26.00

Lose

-50

If you persevere with RED WALLS, you will hit eventually, and you'd still be staying competitive if you backed on each and every one of his 105 runs to date. He has won here five times and can still perform over this sprint distance. He has a tendency to pop in when least expected, so is given a whirl at this price and this reduced mark. The pace profile and draw don't look bad either.

Forteleza

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@21.00

Lose

-50

FORTELEZA is forgiven for the last time out run as a 2-year-old as it was on the heavy ground at Haydock. I'll give her a look based on the run before that at Redcar, which was a near miss and on firmer ground and from only a pound lower in the weights. She hasn't run for over six months, but the stable does OK with them fresh. As she probably makes more progress at some point this season, I'll back her whilst she's this big a price.

Handy little claimer on KING OF THE JUNGLE here, who looks very well handicapped and likely to land a race of this calibre before too long. Not the best of draws but potentially good enough to defy.

Vitalline

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@17.00

Lose

-50

VITALLINE could get involved at this price as he's getting to a handy-looking mark and is now 2 lbs lower than a course/distance near miss in February. The draw is not ideal, but he's not totally in the car park and could get involved. There are also a few front runners in this field, so there's a chance he doesn't get caught as wide this time.
15:00 Blackburn v Watford

Watford

50 WIN

@5.00

Lose

-50

Blackburn and Watford aren't separated by that much in the table. So even though there's a big reason for Blackburn to get the win here, I still think the visitors look value at this price.
15:00 Cardiff v West Brom

West Brom

50 WIN

@3.50

Lose

-50

I think because Cardiff need the points more, there's this assumption that they'll get them. But they're in the relegation spots for a reason, and I think Albion are worth the bet.
15:00 Cheltenham v Carlisle

Cheltenham

50 WIN

@2.80

Win

90

Cheltenham would never be this price in normal circumstances. I think they are worth backing at this price as Carlisle are out of form. If their fate becomes apparent during the course of the afternoon, they could well slip up.
15:00 Chesterfield v Morecambe

Morecambe

50 WIN

@10.00

Lose

-50

Morecambe are down, but Chesterfield are probably out of the play-offs, so there's a chance that as the match goes on, they realize that and slip up here.
15:00 Crawley Town v Northampton

Northampton

50 WIN

@3.80

Lose

-50

I think Northampton don't look like a bad bet here to take advantage of a team that is really feeling the pressure. Now that they themselves are safe, they might be able to thrive under less pressure.
15:00 Exeter v Huddersfield

Exeter

50 WIN

@3.30

Win

115

Huddersfield look like they are on the beach already so I wouldn't have them close to odds on for the win here, especially as the away side.
15:00 Fleetwood Town v Newport County

Newport County

50 WIN

@6.00

Lose

-50

This looks like a pretty close match-up when you assess the stats and everything. Even though Fleetwood should be the favorites, I think Newport looks like value at this price.
15:00 Middlesbrough v Norwich

Norwich

50 WIN

@5.50

Lose

-50

Middlesbrough have a dodgy performance or two in them, and the pressure will be on them big time. Norwich may be good enough to spoil the party here.
15:00 Milton Keynes Dons v Grimsby

Milton Keynes Dons

50 WIN

@3.30

Lose

-50

This is a tricky one for Grimsby, who need the points for the play-off push but there's a definite chance that they slip up at MK Dons, which can be a very tricky place to get a result.
15:00 Newcastle v Ipswich

Ipswich

50 WIN

@18.00

Lose

-50

Newcastle were below their best last week, and Ipswich might be able to land a match of this type on their down from the Premier League. It's a big price for them.
15:00 Salford City v Colchester

Colchester

50 WIN

@3.60

Lose

-50

Two sides right on the cusp of the play-offs in a match that is effectively a knock-out for the team that loses. I think Colchester probably have a shred of value at this price.
15:00 Tranmere v Crewe

Crewe

50 WIN

@3.90

Lose

-50

Crewe have a definite chance to win this one. They are higher in the table and even though they have lost out on a play-off spot, I think they can get the points here.
15:00 Walsall v Accrington Stanley

Accrington Stanley

50 WIN

@6.00

Win

250

Accrington look a decent price for the away win here, especially with Walsall taking a dip in form of late. There's a chance they slip up here and Accrington can express themselves more now they are safe.
15:00 Wolverhampton v Leicester

Leicester

50 WIN

@7.00

Lose

-50

Leicester might be able to pick up some points on their way out of the PL and are given consideration here, particularly now they are safe from harm.
13:00 Harrogate Town v Notts County

Harrogate Town

50 WIN

@4.75

Lose

-50

Notts County are out of form and potentially worth taking on, particularly as the away side. This is a tricky match up for them in the circumstances and the home side hold some value.
12:30 Chelsea v Everton

Everton

50 WIN

@7.50

Lose

-50

Everton have been performing well above themselves since the return of David Moyes and could potentially cause an upset against a Chelsea side that is probably below their par from earlier in the season.
12:30 Leyton Orient v Wycombe

Leyton Orient

50 WIN

@2.90

Win

95

I fancy Orient with the home advantage here. Wycombe appear to have lost out on the automatic promotion places with Birmingham gone and Wrexham in form, so I fancy the O's to clinch this.

Rebel Intentions

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@31.00

Lose

-50

I think we can excuse the last three runs from REBEL INTENTIONS as one was over fences and two were in a higher grade. He's now only a pound above the last winning mark, runs well fresh, and drops back to more beatable company. Could pick off some of these and get involved if matching the form when last seen at around this sort of handicap.
14:05 2:05 Perth

Bodhisattva

Daily Racing

25 EWNB

@15.00

Lose

-50

BODHISATTVA has proved himself at this distance in a higher grade and might be able to defy the top weight with a useful claimer on-board. A pound lighter than when runner-up in the Edinburgh National in February and that was a step up from this. Throw in a previous course win and he's a tricky one to chalk off.
11:30 Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Olga Danilovic

Olga Danilovic

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.50

Lose

-50

Great win for Danilovic in the last round, and she's in great shape on clay at the moment. Potentially good enough to take out Alexandrova, who is up and down and less consistent than her opponent on this surface.
11:30 Juan Manuel Cerundolo vs Felix Auger Aliassime

Juan Manuel Cerundolo

Win Match

50 WIN

@3.40

Win

120

Auger-Aliassime has made a slow start to the clay court season, and Cerundolo is a dangerous-looking underdog for me here. Big rankings gap, but I think a meeting on this surface makes it a touch closer than the current odds structure suggests.
03:05 TEX Rangers @ The Athletics

The Athletics

Money Line

50 WIN

@2.20

A very bunched division this in the early exchanges and The Athletics are probably the team to back in this contest. I'd chance them to clinch the win with the home advantage.

Pirates have won the last two, so there's potentially a revival on the way. With the Angels going in the opposite direction, I'll take Pittsburgh here.

Cavalry Call just looks to be winning soon if you ask me. Just missed out here the run before last and now gets the inside track from the stalls, so should be winning here from this sort of mark.
16:00 Leylah Fernandez vs Ann Li

Ann Li

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.40

Win

70

Of the outsiders in the women's draw today, I think Ann Li looks the most likely winner. She's broadly been a much more promising player on clay and is taken to oust Fernandez in this one.
14:30 Luca Brecel v Ryan Day

Ryan Day

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.75

I've never really fancied Brecel this season, and I'd be surprised if he goes far this fortnight. Day is good enough to take this one.

Digital

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@17.00

Lose

-50

DIGITAL doesn't have the best of draws, but has now had a run out to blow away the cobwebs and drops to two pounds below his last winning mark. That reappearance run was a little better than expected too, and peak turf form last season was in a higher grade and weight, so there's probably going to be an uptick at some stage if returning to that sort of form. Let's hope it's whilst the price is in our favor.

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.20

Lose

-50

Coric has had a bit of a revival on the tour this year and Arnaldi has been a bit sluggish. Even though he is the better ranked player I feel he needs to up his game to win this and there's a definite chance he won't be able to.

Miss Pearl

Daily Racing

25 EWNAP

@26.00

Lose

-50

Disappointing in conditionals the last twice, MISS PEARL is considered back to the same mark as runs at Bangor and Hereford in February. Both of those were near misses, and if she runs back to that standard, then she could get involved from way down the odds market. Still a maiden, which is the concern, but there's still each-way claims.
14:30 Ronnie OSullivan v Allister Carter

Allister Carter

Win Match

50 WIN

@4.00

Lose

-50

I think it's worth a look at Ali here. He's been playing regularly on the tour to a pretty good standard, and Ronnie hasn't been at it even when he has been playing.
13:30 Suzan Lamens vs Emma Raducanu

Suzan Lamens

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.40

Lose

-50

Raducanu has never really looked as convincing on the clay court as she does on the hard, so I think she's worth taking on here. Lamens looks like a tough match when analyzing the stats.
10:00 Zhang Anda v Pang Junxu

Pang Junxu

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.20

60

I think Junxu should probably be the marginal favorite rather than the other way around. He's potentially able to claim this one and have a decent run here.

Polina Kudermetova

Win Match

Polina Kudermetova is probably the better of the sisters on the clay surface and she looks a decent value bet in this first tour meeting between the two.

The Astros are recovering and look good enough to take this in their own ballpark. I think they should be the favorites rather than the odds being split like this.
00:40 CHI White Sox @ MIN Twins

CHI White Sox

Money Line

50 WIN

@3.10

Lose

-50

Neither of these teams look in great form at all, so I wouldn't have one so heavily favored ahead of the other. Chicago, therefore, is worth backing, and if they are this price for each match in the series, we could well make a profit as I doubt they'll be swept.

The Rockies can't lose forever, and I think they are worth a punt against the out-of-form Royals, who are struggling to string wins together just like their opponents.

Mets have won the last five and are the early leader, above the Phillies, in the standings, so with home advantage I think they look a decent bet.
